I hate to hear it but it isn't a surprise. I had checked in on the old girl a few times and the last time it wouldn't let me open any of the stories. RIP Trekweb. You introduced me to discussion groups and posting on forums so I will always be grateful for that deed. Made some on-line acquaintances and really discovered IDIC.

I left Trekweb after several years really not posting much there, partly because of someone using my nickname there to ask to edit, and then my trying to fix this with their facebook site, only to have one of them cut and paste articles from Trekcore, which led me here, as did some of the mods there. Then they closed down the "fakebook" to reopen it at a like page for a StarTrek V remaster site. (Probably it was originally). (See my intro pages for details). I wanted to save it, but never to edit or moderate it. That was up to people that actually do that for a living.

What I want to know is what happened to Steve? Someone should set up a new facebook saying bring back trekweb. Not me.

I also want to know is who was 'Mr. Moderator' as his MO didn't match Steve at all. Was it this Vance? Was this Archangel?

The site's flickr feed still runs as it is probably on some kind of timer. When the site clocks out it will probably die. Let's see, what is their lookup? Steadfast networks out of Chicago, Ill.? It's going to expire 9/14/2014. Steve still owns it. (Googled this). So is he just not replying to any emails?

Steve, apparently now has a reasonably high up job at Google and doesn't have the time or inclination to manage the place, nor does he have any interest in handing off to anyone that did. Site owner no longer cares, site dies. It's as old as the Internet.

"Mr. Moderator?" I don't know who it was, but I can say with reasonable certainty that it wasn't Steve or Archangel. Steve owns the site and would have no need for sock puppets and Archangel? The man would never stoop to that level. He had way too much class.
